My daughter is Level 10. We attend 5 in state meets in FL and 1 out of state...this year in Idaho...then we have state, regionals and nationals if she qualifies. That is Jan until April.

My daughter is a L4, and right now there are 6 on the schedule. That is not including the sectionals or states. We *may* get to a sectional, not sure about states this time, she just started 6 mths ago and is only 6. Not sure if that number will stay the same, we've had add-ons and cancellations so who knows anymore.....I just make sure I check my e-mail everyday.

At the moment my L7 dd has (6) meets scheduled this season. This includes (2) Invitationals, (3) Sectionals and States (which she aleady qualified for, so I know that she is going barring no unforeseen problems.)

It would be nice to get one more Invitational in before States, but I do not know if that will happen or not (I'm thinking not moreso that happening )

My girls will do three each all qualifiers, little DD is too young to go to provincials in the school system, oldest is still trying to come back from injuries and probably won't compete vault which means she cannot make it to provincials.

Last year oldest did a team comp at the end of the season, so much fun, little DD should be able to do that this year.

State meet and 7 other meets. A couple of the meets are not quite set in stone yet. Level 4 probably.

At this point we only have 2 meets set in stone, 2 others are pending. Plus states in March. Doesn't seem like enough to me. We're also having a mock meet in our gym with a judge coming in. She'll be giving out scores and discussing things with the girls so that will be great. It would be nice to have a bit more advance notice with these meets. Seems like we get hit with the schedule, and the bills, at the last minute! Frustrating!

netty,
I feel your pain about the short notice. I feel like these last couple months I've learned more about gymnastics than I ever thought I would know. And yes, I know NOW for next year to budget the money better before meet season and to NOT schedule vacation end of Aug becasue we missed our "mock" meet. In the past 3 months I have spent about $500.00 (tuition, new leos, new warm-up, new team leo, meet fees, coaches fees, ect...) And, also that a meet means to block off the entire weekend until a couple days before when you find out your session. We should start a new thread about tips and tricks for new L4 moms!
